Marco Polo - Ventimiglia (IM)

The Marco Polo restaurant, run for three generations by the Pani family, is located in a beautiful seafront position on the Ventimiglia promenade. The place is unmistakable: a building entirely made of wood, like a chalet, which stands out among the other signs of the beach establishments. The interiors are also completely made of wood: the overall atmosphere, warm and welcoming, may initially amaze with its originality in the context. The entrance precedes the two dining rooms. The main one has a rectangular plan, well-spaced tables and overlooks the private beach through large windows and a French door. In the kitchen there is Diego Pani, a young and concrete chef. Among his experiences, the kitchens of Vittorio Beltramelli, Joël Robuchon, Guy Savoy and three years at Louis XV in Monte Carlo together with Alain Ducasse.

EraGoffi - Torino











EraGoffi is the gastronomic restaurant in Turin that represents a new era and a new history of a historic place, the Goffi del Lauro, where artists, musicians and literary figures from Turin in the early 1900s used to meet.
The new revised name is a tribute to tradition, as well as the logo of the restaurant, which represents the laurel tree of which there is only one specimen left in the garden.


Once inside, you will find rooms totally renovated with great taste, in which you will admire the wise use of tapestries alternating with plaster and exposed brick.

In the dining room, furnished with elements of great design, stand out the suspended lamps that contribute to a well-designed lighting and well centered on the tables.

EraGoffi does not take away from what has been, but adds new values and content in a contemporary key.


A great hand, that of Chef Lorenzo Careggio! Personality, technique and imagination, many ideas, a taste for provocation perfectly balanced by an admirable sense of balance make his cuisine a source of gratification and surprise, which is somewhat the essence of what we look for from a Cucina d'Autore.

Followed and cuddled in this occasion by Sous-Chef Enzo Barillà, we had the confirmation that the restaurant is based on solid foundations and that even the Chef's absence for training does not affect in the least the preparations.

This is a restaurant which is making a lot of people talk about it: in this second tasting experience we were once again impressed by an original and personal path, enhanced by excellent raw materials.
